The 18 Best Hill Climbing Electric Scooters for Every Budget: $500 to $5000

How to Conquer Any Hill

Unless you live on the great plains, you’ll have to ride uphill with your electric scooter at some point. Most scooters, even the cheapest ones, will be able to crawl up your average hill given enough time. But what if you want to fly up hills, or what if you live somewhere like San Francisco, where the hills are more like sheer cliffs? If you need a fast hill climbing electric scooter, then this is the list for you!

No matter your budget, we have a scooter for you, with each one of our selections boasting class-topping hill climb times in our 10% grade, 200 foot test. We’ll also include relevant scooters that are close in hill-climbing capabilities and are worth your consideration.

At the end of our video we put two of the fastest scooters ever made head-to-head in a race up our test hill to crown the best hill climber on the market right now!
